Peshawar has been in the limelight for all the wrong reasons for a while now and whenever we seem to think that the worse is behind us, it seems as if our imagination is smaller then what can happen in the real world. So we came to a conclusion that we need show a new side of that city to the world and make sure that the world realizes that its a city of survivors, a city with hope and a city with a future.
Asad is a young man, a little over 20 but he is busy doing what he can to bring back the glamour and the prestige that his city once enjoyed. Self taught and only 2 years of experience under his belt, Asad is doing all he can to show the world what Peshawar really is like and he is yet to make the wave he is aiming for we think he shows enough promise to be on our list.

Determined to be a photographer, Asad has been teaching himself the ins and outs of the trade. With one goal in his head to make his work stand out from the rest, he is never scared of experimenting. Unlike most photographers, you will find a unique blend of lens, edits, ranges and flares on his pictures. The key to him standing out is his will to succeed, eventhough he had no one to offer him guidance Asad kept on going. He started his journey in the middle of 2012 and 2 years later he is one of the rising stars of Peshawar. Landscapes seem to pose up for him because on his page you will find them presenting themselves in a manner that is seldom seen while people tend to bring out their natural colors and personalities when he has his lens pointed in their direction.
The key to success is the will to be better, that is what Asad's advice is to everyone who is playing to make a future in this industry. He doesn't deny the fact that its getting harder everyday to stand out in the flood of pictures that is pouring in but he knows that if you are willing to make mistakes and take risks then you can get yourself noticed and your craft will scream of your greatness. Every shot is unique and that is why everytime he has his camera close to his face, his mind starts processing every stimuli in the environment nothing goes unnoticed, from the tiny little bottle lies behind the subject to the gap in the horizon and once every bit of information is processed his brain starts showing what possibly could be one of the best shots.
For the future, Asad has something in warps but he is not willing to give up what it is yet though its not photography which makes a little sad but we are sure that whatever he has in his pandora box it will be outstanding and we are sure that even if he picks something else as his day job, he will be busy clicking for himself and would always share his best picks with us.
